Hello World

The classical introductory exercise. Just say "Hello, World!".

"Hello, World!" is the traditional first program for beginning programming in a new language or environment.

The objectives are simple:

  • Write a function that returns the string "Hello, World!".
  • Run the test suite and make sure that it succeeds.
  • Submit your solution and check it at the website.

If everything goes well, you will be ready to fetch your first real exercise.

Installation

See this guide for instructions on how to setup your local R environment.

How to implement your solution

In each problem folder, there is a file named <exercise_name>.R containing a function that returns a NULL value. Place your implementation inside the body of the function.

How to run tests

Inside of RStudio, simply execute the test_<exercise_name>.R script. This can be conveniently done with testthat's auto_test function. Because exercism code and tests are in the same folder, use this same path for both code_path and test_path parameters. On the command-line, you can also run Rscript test_<exercise_name>.R.
